This research and reference text addresses issues relevant to the implementation of sustainability in the built environment, covering the most recent advancements in the implementation of sustainability principles. The book presents numerous case studies that demonstrate the implementation of sustainable actions at local levels and municipalities. It situates the built environment within the broader network of environments it interacts with, engaging the perspectives of a wide range of professionals, including architects, engineers, geographers, urban planners, environmentalists, materials scientists, and more. This interdisciplinary text is ideal for a wide range of researchers and industry professionals working on sustainability problems. Its ground-up approach also makes it a handy reference for citizens and politicians wishing to change their local communities in line with sustainable development principles.
Key Features:
- Analyses how sustainable proposed sustainability measures actually are.
- Provides up to date information about the possibilities for implementing sustainability in the built environment.
- Includes examples of successful cases in Europe and South America.
- Includes examples of good ideas that failed because the local context was not considered.
